Kaos, Chaos!

Our apartment is once again a total chaos! When I left this morning, not only were all the bottles and jars still piled up in the hallway, but all of our new roomate Caro's stuff is strewn throughout the apartment. She was supposed to move in fully yesterday, but painting her room took much longer than they expected. (Amazingly enough, you need more than one coat of white paint to cover a dark green wall..) So we have boxes, dressers, backpacks, a desk, i.e. the complete contents of a furnished room, crammed into our already somewhat cramped common room. I'm really excited to get home from work today though, as by then it should all be gone, including the recycling! Should be fun.
In other news, I got an email a few days ago from the other Foreign Language Assistant here in Bad Oldesloe. "What's this, Another FSA in Oldesloe? Shouldn't Dustin have known about this already?" you may be asking yourself. Well, if she was teaching English, I would know about it! Paula, on the other hand is from Spain, and is therefore, naturally teaching Spanish to the students of the Theodor-Storm-Gesamtschule next door. So we're going to get lunch after school today. I'll be very interested to get her impressions of the school next door, to ask what it's like to live here in Oldesloe, and to finally meet someone around my own age here in town!
